The New My Bloody Valentine Album Will Be Released Tonight - Polidicks

[IMG]http://i49.tinypic.com/adfgno.jpg[/IMG] [quote]Here's what My Bloody Valentine's Facebook page says: "We are preparing to go live with the new album/website this evening. We will make an announcement as soon as its up." That's right: The band's follow up to 1991's Loveless is coming. Tonight.[/quote] [url]http://www.facebook.com/mybloodyvalentine/posts/404728879618015[/url] [url]http://pitchfork.com/news/49403-the-new-my-bloody-valentine-album-will-be-released-tonight/[/url]

I'm assuming these guys are popular in Europe or something?

Haven't heard of them in a very long time, they were kinda big in the 90's in Ireland.

How is this news? Are their slasher miners or something

[QUOTE=TheKritter71;39453238]How is this news? Are their slasher miners or something[/QUOTE] Best I can recall, it's R.E.M. for slashers.

Well...didn't see this coming.

Based on the band's name, wouldn't it make more sense for them to just wait a couple weeks and release it on Valentine's Day?

Who cares though. Psyched.

shoegazin all night

I like it when bands do the whole "oh btw, our first new album in ages is out today" thing. Godspeed you! black emperor did the same last year.

"She Found Now" 2. "Only Tomorrow" 3. "Who Sees You" 4. "Is This and Yes" 5. "If I Am" 6. "New You" 7. "In Another Way" 8. "Nothing Is" 9. "Wonder 2" [/quote]

With a name like that I half expected them to be screamo.

[QUOTE=Negrul1;39453539]I like it when bands do the whole "oh btw, our first new album in ages is out today" thing. Godspeed you! black emperor did the same last year.[/QUOTE] Actually, it's been known for a while that MBV was working on new material.

[QUOTE=The_Marine;39454154]With a name like that I half expected them to be screamo.[/QUOTE] There's a doom metal band called My Dying Bride so it seems things with "My" are fairly safe

so, nineteen fuckin years and they only release nine songs. hah

[QUOTE=JustGman;39453166]I'm assuming these guys are popular in Europe or something?[/QUOTE] they're /mu/core, pitchfork-core and all that jazz. They're still a really excellent shoegaze band.

[QUOTE=JustGman;39453166]I'm assuming these guys are popular in Europe or something?[/QUOTE] i rolled my eyes so hard they got disconnected and tumbled out of my eye sockets

[QUOTE=The_Marine;39454154]With a name like that I half expected them to be screamo.[/QUOTE] You must be thinking of Bullet for my Valentine, which actually is releasing an album in about 10 days.

[QUOTE=JustGman;39453166]I'm assuming these guys are popular in Europe or something?[/QUOTE] they're not really popular anywhere anymore

I could have sworn this was the title of a movie a year or so ago.

[QUOTE=Splash Attack;39455484]I could have sworn this was the title of a movie a year or so ago.[/QUOTE] It was but the band is much better Really good shoegazing band and you can say what you like but Loveless is one of the top-tier shoegaze albums of all time and easily one of the best albums from the 90s

i don't understand why people make these threads in this section. you always just get a bunch of "uhh, okay? i don't know who they are" posts.

[QUOTE=Take_Opal;39456115]i don't understand why people make these threads in this section. you always just get a bunch of "uhh, okay? i don't know who they are" posts.[/QUOTE] Because it's news?

[QUOTE=Banned?;39456440]Because it's news?[/QUOTE] news thats better suited to music sections. literally half this thread is people posting about how they've never heard of them and shoegaze.

[QUOTE=Eluveitie;39456577]news thats better suited to music sections. literally half this thread is people posting about how they've never heard of them and shoegaze.[/QUOTE] As true as this is, I think it qualifies as news, I mean a 22 year gap between albums doesn't happen every day.

the fact that you don't know about the subject doesn't make it any less newsworthy. a solution i'd offer would be to not click on threads like these?
